Sasthamangalam Mahadevar Temple, Hindu temple in Thiruvananthapuram, India.

Sasthamangalam Mahadevar Temple stands on a hilltop in Kerala, with a central shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva and multiple subsidiary deities around the premises.

The temple, constructed over 700 years ago, maintained regular visits from Travancore kings who walked the designated path now known as Radhapura Kunnu Lane.

During the annual ten-day festival starting on Thiruvathira star day, devotees perform rituals including water offerings, garland presentations, and fire ceremonies.

The temple opens daily from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM, with convenient access from Trivandrum International Airport at 9 kilometers and Trivandrum Central Railway Station at 5.5 kilometers.

The temple origin connects to a discovery where a woman found blood flowing from a stone she used to sharpen her knife, leading to its identification as a Shiva Lingam.
